It just feels good!

Went for the typical Sunday morning ride (30 miler) with Team CBC here in North Carolina this weekend. It was about 20 deg F cooler than the summer rides. Great folks, beautiful scenery. Best ride in a long time. I couldn't help thinking how good the bike felt. I had been working through frequent RD adjustments due to cable stretch, seatpost, stem and saddle swaps to get comfortable on the old aluminum-frame bike through the summer... Everything felt great! Funny thing is that I had been off the bike for 3 weeks, since the MS 150 weekend in New Bern, NC. Leaves me wondering if extended recovery time, the cooler weather, or some other factor made the difference. Any ideas?Merckx2.jpg
